After 10 years driving DCT/Auto, I'm terribly missing the stick. This will 99.9% be the last MT M3 ever made. This is your last chance.

I am all for manuals. But why do you think this generation will be for sure the last gen for manuals? I am genuinely curious so no aggressive questioning overtones just to be clear.
I've heard the statement being used again and again for BMWs. I am not too sure that time will come. BMW could be the last brand with a manual and there will be enough sales to satisfy them. |
The manual is gone from all other models expect M3 and M2. Seven years from now it'll be very unlikely that MT continue within the M3/M4 family.
There is virtually no manual transmission from Audi and Mercedes anymore.
BMW has already suggested hybrid version for their upcoming M models.
I dare to bet the M2 will be the only MT available moving forward.
